Confidence Indicator

A measure of the willingness of investors to attempt higher returns by assuming more risk. A confidence indicator may be calculated in a number of different ways. It may be calculated by compiling an index of stocks categorized according to risk, where a higher measure indicates higher confidence. A confidence indicator also may be determined subjectively; for example, a person may take a survey of industryinsiders to see how they feel about taking more risk.

Consumer confidence remained relatively stable in June, showing a slight improvement in the eurozone, according to the Consumer Confidence Indicator (CCI), published monthly by the European Commission.

To this end, we use two confidence indices, namely the Consumer Confidence Indicator (CCI) and the Economic Sentiment Indicator (ESI), both of which are derived from the European Commission Business and Consumer Survey (ECBCS).
